Brittany Allgaier and JP at Giant City State Park

Brittany and J.P's Trip


JP and I went on an adventure to a local attraction in Southern Illinois. We visited Giant City State Park and Lodge in Makanda, IL. We visited this historic landmark and ate some really good food. We learned that the Lodge was built by C.C.C workers back in 1933-1945. We got our picture by a statue that is dedicated to the C.C.C workers that built the lodge.

Then JP and I went inside the lodge and ate some lunch and got to see the buffalo inside!
We took this adventure on November 11th, 2008 and we went to Giant City Lodge and learned about the history of when the lodge and park where created. We went inside the lodge and also we visited outside and observed the landmark that represents the C.C.C workers that built the lodge. We traveled altogether a total of 24.2 miles in a car. The latitude was 37.5924861 and the longitude was -89.1829268. We had a great trip together and learned a lot about our local history.
